Jillian Cardiff came to this remote mountain town to forget the demon attack that almost killed her. Instead, she rescues-and falls for-a gorgeous stranger who has no memory of anything other than his name. Handsome, charming, and protective, Reseph seems like the kind of man whom Jillian can trust. But with hints of a troubling history of his own, he’s also the kind of man who can be very dangerous . . .
Reseph may not know why he mysteriously appeared in Jillian’s life, but he knows he wants to stay. Yet when Jillian’s neighbors are killed, and demon hunters arrive on the scene, Reseph fears that he’s putting Jillian in danger. And once it’s revealed that Reseph is also Pestilence, the Horseman responsible for ravaging the world, he and Jillian must face the greatest challenge of all: Can they forget the horrors of a chilling past to save the future they both desire?
~~~*~~~*~~~
NT: Redeeming the bad boy is popular topic in romance but it would be hard to find a badder boy than Reseph. As Pestilence, he did some horrible things. Was writing Rogue Rider more of a challenge because of that or was it one you looked forward to?
Larissa: Good question! And you know, writing Rogue Rider was definitely one I looked forward to. I LOVE the challenge of making someone the reader hates into someone they can root for. I also love torturing characters (I have a touch of sadist in me, I think!*g*) So I enjoyed writing Reseph’s story, especially because he’s a fun character whether he’s evil or good!
NT: There is a pretty big secret (shh! We aren’t telling what it is π ) revealed in Rogue Rider. Did you know it was coming from the beginning or was it a surprise to you, too?
Larissa: I’ve known since Sin Undone! It was funny though, because when I told my editor during a discussion of Eternal Rider revisions, she actually gasped. Loved that! So I’m hoping readers will be surprised (pleasantly,) though I know that enough hints have been thrown out that many readers already suspect.
NT: What’s next? You’ve mentioned that the next book will be set in the Demonica world. Will it be part of the Demonica series or a new spin-off series with a new name?
Larissa: It’s a Demonica book that will transition from the Lords of Deliverance series back into the Demonica series. Really, they are pretty much the same series, but we’re getting back to using the Demonica designation.

I so want to read this series! It’s been on my list for a while now! Larissa is a fabulous author!
Can’t wait to find out what the surprise is! Great interview!
I haven’t read Larissa’s latest series other than her Demonica one, so I am really excited to read it!
Can’t wait for this one! I feel like I ask this every couple of months, but Larissa what color are you streaks? Still blue? π
I love the Demonica series, but haven’t had the chance to read the Lords of Deliverance yet. I would love to read about the Horsemen. π
Oh I can’t wait for this story. I know what I would like to be doing over turkey weekend.
I do really enjoy villians who are redeemed in stories.
Thanks, everyone!!! Also, my hair has pink streaks in it now! π
Thank you especially to Lillie and Fatin for having me here!!!!
Awesome series. Can’t wait to read it-on the Christmas list π The covers are HAWT.

I cannot wait for Rogue Rider, I was introduced to Larissa’s books last year and read everything in such a short time, the anticipation for the next book is killer. Lol. I love love love her work and am looking forward to the next one!!! Thanks so much for the giveaway!
I love this series! I can’t wait for this new book!!! Thanks for the giveaway!!
I can’t wait to read the newest book
Hey thanks for the great giveaway!! I just live Larissa Ione and I always enjoy her books!!
Can’t wait for the next one! Love all of your books <3.
OMG!!! A new Demonica book! I can’t wait. When can we expect to get reacquainted with the Sem brothers? I’m so excited!!! I loved Rogue Rider, she did a wonderful job with Reseph. I really felt for him! I was worried since Pestilence was such a terror. Great book. Congrats Larissa!!!
I can’t wait for this book! I am speculating what the “big reveal” is….
I absolutely love this series! You are the queen of bad boys. Every character has been a bad boy in his or should I say her own right. Reseph is the lead dog! Reseph is definately a character we all should hate but somehow you just can’t. He just needs his priorities re-adjusted. I am hoping some of the secondary characters will get their own books in the Demonica series.
“There once was a Horseman named Reseph
Who discovered his past and his ‘bad-selph’.
His soul, it was shattered
but to Jillian, he MATTERED;
So he fought for their lives with success-ph”
BTW, I have purple streaks since I’m old (but only in time not in body or heart).
Can’t wait to read RR!
Great interview, Thanks! I love surprises! I love this series and am looking forward to what that will be. =D Also… Yay for the pink stripes in your hair, my daughter loves to color her hair in fun ways and is working towards rainbow hair! Thank you for the chance to win this series!

Rogue Rider is my most wanted book of the year.I love Larissa’s books shes a fantastic author.
awesome q&a with Larissa! I love her books. Thanks for the giveaway!
This is an amazing series like anything Larissa writes. I don’t think it is possible that she can write something that her fans wouldn’t love and crave more of it!
I love your demonica and rider series. I cant wait for Rogue Rider or Reaverβs Story to come out. I am friend with all of the roleplayers from the series, Iβm in the demonica/rider groups. I also created a group for fans too. I would like to think you and other writers like you for getting me through the worst years or high school. I was bullied all through school and you writers helped me. Books helped me escape it when nothing else helped. Larissa you are a very talented writer, author and friend. Thanks for everything keep on writing. I love reading and writing poems you are very good inspiration. I write poems about life and love though none have been published.
Hmm a big secret. Can’t wait to find out what it is! Maybe I already suspect it. Thanks for the chance!
